Before you start
  • Gateway credentials for NMI, Authorize.net, or Stripe when adding a live MID
  • An understanding of whether the credentials are sandbox or live

In Recurrify, a MID is a gateway connection. MID pools and routers decide which connection handles a transaction; checkout pages never assign a gateway directly.

Live MID limits are enforced by the Recurrify service plan: Launch includes 3, Growth includes 15, and Enterprise is uncapped. Dry Run does not consume a live MID allowance.

Add a gateway MID

Choose the provider and environment

Open MIDs and choose Add MID. Select NMI, Authorize.net, or Stripe, then choose Sandbox or Live. Provider-specific credential fields appear in the same modal.

Save encrypted credentials

Give the connection a clear operational name, enter its credentials, and save. Recurrify stores an encrypted credential payload and only returns configuration status to the portal.

Confirm health and 3D Secure capability

The MID list shows health, environment, configured state, and provider 3D Secure support. Stripe and NMI can initiate supported 3D Secure flows; Authorize.net does not initiate challenges through this integration.

Enable wallet checkout on Stripe

For a Stripe MID, turn on Express checkout to make that route eligible for Apple Pay, Google Pay, and PayPal. Stripe decides which methods to render from the shopper's browser, device, currency, account configuration, and registered checkout domain. Card-backed wallets can be saved for an accepted recurring agreement; PayPal is offered only on eligible one-time payments.
